Human-First Founders Podcast: Inspiring Stories and Tips for Down-to-Earth Entrepreneurs
Welcome to Human-First Founders — the podcast for down-to-earth entrepreneurs who care deeply, think differently, and want to build a business that actually feels good to run.
Hosted by Kinsey Soderberg of Authentic AI, this show is your cozy corner of the internet where we get real about what it takes to grow a brand with heart — in a world that’s constantly trying to automate, hustle, and "optimize" the humanity right out of it.
Each week, you’ll hear thought-provoking convos with values-led founders, behind-the-scenes stories from Kinsey’s business (and brain), and the occasional AI tip — always delivered with a human-first lens.
Whether you’re navigating brand strategy, marketing mindset blocks, or the weirdness of being a creative online, this show is here to remind you: you don’t have to do it like everyone else. You get to do it in a way that feels good to YOU.
